The Stats<\/h3>\n

This question has been batted around for years. The truth is, there are just too many variables to give any sort of safe estimate. Any little thing can change the statistic drastically. However, there are some very fundamental yard sticks that apply. Men, on the average, burn roughly 100 calories<\/a> per sexual interlude. Women burn a modest 69 in comparison. This is where we see the most obvious ways these stats are hard to build because the length of the session has a great impact on the number of calories burned.<\/p>\n

Assume the Position<\/h3>\n

Different sexual positions<\/a> burn off more calories than others. Another similarity to exercising. Even Khloe Kardashian has been quoted as saying reverse cowgirl burns the most calories. The deciding factor here is if you are the one on the top or the bottom. The person on top in a missionary position will burn about 150 calories in 30 minutes of lovemaking. Whoever is on the bottom burns a measly 50 calories and still has to worry about working off the chili-cheese fries from lunch. It\u2019s a great ab workout if you\u2019re on top, too. The upper body, hips, and core all engage. The same goes for men with doggy-style, although women can burn almost 100 calories for 30 minutes. If she goes full-on cowgirl, you going to have to intentionally get rid of those calories by thrusting you hips up in several reps and flexing the ab muscles. Both sexes burn about 100 calories while spooning.<\/p>\n

Figuring Out the Question \u201cHow Many Calories Does Sex Burn?<\/h3>\n

This is a very common question and something that people discuss a lot. The information comes from all sorts of different places in varying degrees of dependability and relevance. Surprisingly, there have been some important studies on the issue including a 2013 study by the University of Montreal<\/a> who asked their study group to wear sex-fitness trackers while having sex. It showed men burn approximately 4.2 calories per minute. Women only burn 3.1. Another 2013 study, this one in the New England Journal of Medicine, debunked it all claiming that sex only lasts bout 6 minutes and isn\u2019t burning any significant number of calories at all.
